Physical Pains?  Anxiety?  Depression?  Headaches?  Acupuncture helps you achieve wellbeing and balance and is effective for a wide range of conditions. 

 

Acupuncture is a natural and holistic approach to healing that has been used for centuries to treat a variety of health conditions. By stimulating specific points on the body with thin needles, acupuncture can help alleviate pain, reduce stress, restore health, boost immunity, and promote overall wellbeing. 

   

Whether you are suffering from chronic pain, anxiety, infertility, or any other health concern, acupuncture can help you find relief and restore balance to your body. Contact me today to schedule a FREE 20 minute consultation and start your journey to better health with acupuncture in Reading and Wokingham. 

​

What to Expect During Treatment

Each acupuncture session is tailored to your specific needs. I'll begin by listening to your concerns and understanding your symptoms. The treatment involves placing very fine needles at carefully selected points on your body. Most people find this deeply relaxing, and many even fall asleep during treatment.

​

Sessions typically last around 45 minutes, and you'll rest comfortably while the needles work to restore balance in your system. The needles are sterile, single-use, and much finer than medical needles.

​

Your Treatment Journey

  • Initial consultation: We'll discuss your health history and current concerns

  • Personalised treatment plan: Based on your individual needs and goals

  • Ongoing support: Regular sessions to build on your progress

  • Flexible approach: Treatments adapt as your condition improves

What is Acupuncture?

Acupuncture is an ancient, holistic therapy that works by inserting fine needles into specific points on the body to restore balance and support your natural healing processes. Rather than just treating symptoms, acupuncture addresses the root cause of your concerns, whether physical, emotional, or both.

What can Acupuncture do for me?

Acupuncture works to maintain our body's equilibrium, which can become blocked for a number of reasons; e.g. our lifestyle, trauma, diet, emotional upset, injury etc. In certain instances, acupuncture can be an effective therapy to help restore balance and promote physical and emotional harmony.

For nearly every named "western" illness, there is a Chinese Medicine interpretation of that illness, specific to each individual. With acupuncture you are truly treated as a whole person, not as someone having a single illness. In the UK, more and more people are turning to acupuncture.

What can acupuncture do for me

Who has Acupuncture

phobias, stress, anxiety, emotional health for all ages

Many people have acupuncture for help with specific symptoms or to relieve specific pains.  Some people come to acupuncture as their first choice, while others are drawn to it, sometimes in despair that their symptoms have not been helped with conventional medicine.

​

Others come to acupuncture knowing that something is not right and will turn to acupuncture when either nothing can be found or no suitable treatment given.

​

People also come to acupuncture to improve their general sense of wellbeing, to help maintain good health, as a preventative measure. Because acupuncture aims to treat the whole person rather than specific symptoms in isolation, it can be very effective for a range of conditions.

​

Acupuncture is considered suitable for all ages including babies and children, elderly and the chronically ill.
